The Good, The Bad and The Ugly!!!

Well it's been interesting this week... Let's recap somethings shall we! Let start with the ugly... After years of friendship and growth it seems longtime pals Movado & Foota hype have gone their separate ways... Now many have asked me my thoughts on this sad situation and well here you go!!! Honestly I think this is a private matter, these two have been with each other through thick and thin... Gone to jail for one another stood by each other when they needed each other... When no one was taking a "real interest" in Movado's career (Including Mr. Dad) It was Foota who took him to Daseca studio voiced "Real Mckoy" and took it to the road!!! When Foota was down and Movado was doing well as an artist he would help Foota... But somewhere as time went on people change... whether for good or bad they change and that is life! At the end of the day their friendship runs deeper then any of US outsiders (or better yet, YOU outsiders) Will ever understand!!! S...

Poor & Boasy... Speaks about incident...

Well some of you may have heard... (some of you won't care) But it seems winner of Jamaica's "Magnum King and Queen's of Dancehall" Competition "Poor and Boasy" who's real name is Omar Johnson was wanted by police for questioning in regards to a stabbing that occurred at Aenon Town Primary School... Currently they have him in police custody but I received this exclusive e:mail from his management... It told a very different side to the story brought by the press: Not sure if you know about Poor and boasy. he is the magnum Kings and Queens winner and he is a street youth. he's been doing very well and has already been booked for Sumfest. Recently, he went to a dance, and his street youth companions got into an altercation with a guy and stabbed him several times. The guy was teasing and making jokes about who let the street youths dem into uptown people dance. He even told boasy to do stuff to his mother that is if he could find her. The guy after...

You won't believe what this white man said about blacks...

WHAT IS SAD ABOUT THIS, IS THE FACT THAT PART OF ME CAN'T HELP BUT AGREE... SMH WE NEED TO DO BETTER... NOT FOR "THEM" BUT FOR US... What is sad is he is not too far from speaking the truth... smh sad!!! Wake up people.... Dee Lee, a white man says "THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES" /and RBG SS Agrees Email Written by RBGStreetScholar on Feb-20-07 9:21pm From: rbg-street-scholar-multi-media-e-zine.blogspot.com Pictorial Embellishments by RBG Street Scholar THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES Why: IGNORANCE, GREED, and SELFISHNESS. "THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES" We can continue to reap profits from the Blacks without the effort of physical slavery. Look at the current methods of containment that they use on themselves: IGNORANCE, GREED, and SELFISHNESS. Their IGNORANCE is the primary weapon of containment. A great man once said, "The best way to hide something from Black people is to put it in a book. GREED is another powerful weapon of containment. Blacks, since t...
Now just a few weeks ago Dancehall Diva D'Angel was in a near fatal car crash... When on her way in from a show a vehicle ran right into the passenger side of her BMW... DAMN!!!! To make matters worse, that just so happened to be the side she was actually sitting in!!! But now here we are less then a month later and her store "Angel's Boutique" has been ROBBED!!! OMG! According to D'Angel around 10 am Three armed men entered her shop, tied up her sales associate and proceeded on a shopping spree of Shoes, Clothes and "Handbags"... WTF Really? Grown armed men taking the handbags? Well luckily it seems the clerk was left unharmed... but including cash taken, D'Angel estimates loss at about $400,000JA approx $5,000US This is crazy!!! First the car is totaled... Then this!!!!!! Could it just be coincidence? Or a serious string of bad luck? Either way it goes Angel is staying positive and says the Constant Spring Police are investigating the incident... A...

BUNG BANG CONNNNNEEEEECCCTTTTT!!!!!!

Me & BLACK RYNO & SEAN STORM...... JAH VINCI BOUNTY KILLER O.K were do I begin, but the top... Big up to my girl Syn who over slept and left me to fend for myself in the mayhem... In the end it is "I" who got the last laugh because what happened tonight was legendary... Let's Begin!!! I got to venue approx 2:37am and at that time there was a very light ring of people round the venue (not a good sign...) Jabba started to play and brought a vibe in what was a very dismal situation... (Massive B to di world!!!) After that few more came in, just enough to make the ring around the dance floor a little more full...( Vibe was good still...) Don't ask me what time exactly the show started (I was well under a meds at this point! =0) all I can say is it had to be close to 4am!!! Damn! Why does there have to be sooooo many dam local artist performing? Get mad at me if you want but the people did not pay to see you!!!!! Promoters need to screen the early acts and stick to...

The Cooling of the past Erupt-tion....

Soooooo a few years back "Seh Dem A Gangsta" was a HIT!!!! (With my help... it's true ask him) Erupt's name was on everyone's lips... Who is this artist? Everyone wanted to know! At that time he was a young come up who was taken under the wing of Bi Bi Gardner, (The sexiest man in Soccer, Beckham who???) Somewhere after, this song became the biggest summer hit but there was a major rupture between this young budding artist and the well respected (and obsessed about) Baller!!! Some say Erupt got hype before his time, some others say.... well, never really heard another side. Hmmmmmmm any-who!!!! It seems that Erupt went on to have another hit "Click your Fingers" and has branched out with his own label called Fully Govern/Bomb Squad Well Good News!!!! It seems that these fences have been mended as Erupt recently voiced a track called "My Love" under the Heart Of Love label... =0) Yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Here is the very late but hot Vi...

The war is on again...

Here we go with the war of words... (I truly hope that is as far as it goes...)  You know I am honestly tired of this crap between these artist...  They say Alliance was cause of this next outburst from Kartel but I say "Who Cares" get over yourselves.... All of you... Kartel you are one of the baddest Lyricist's (Next to Busy... yeah I said it!!!) Movado you have some of the strongest vocals...  Kartel can't do what Vado do and Vado can't do what Kartel do... So can you both just do yourself!!! (I mean that in the most non-sexual way...) Seriously the damage that has been done to dancehall is great enough can we focus on making it better instead of focusing on a next man... Why are ya'll fixated with each other so much anyway? You both are legendary and great artist.... Now can ya'll grow up and act like "Great Men"  Damn SMH!!!! But Mi nah lie the song baaaaaaaaaaaad still!!! ROTFL!!! Wow! (hypocritical I know!) F.Y.I IT IS RAAAAAAAAAAAAW VERSI...

Wedding Bells....

Well Tongues have been wagging about a marriage between dancehall artist Wayne Marshall and Tami Chin... But is it true??? O I soooo hoped so, but after talking to Mr Marshall he says "no wedding bells........ yet" Hmmmmm Yet?  He did not confirm if that yet included Ms Chynn (Love her!!!) Well people this is that still unconfirmed relationship we all love to follow.  ( aaaaah romance, or no romance smh)  But one thing is clear wether they are in a official relationship or not, the chemistry is definitely there.... If you don't believe me take a look for yourself!!! Wayne Marshall "Good Love" starring Tami Chynn (Cho Cho Choooooooooo DWL)

Girl Dies at a dance???

Well after this circulated all over the net, people voiced their outraged at not only the ridiculous turn dancehall has taken but at the fact the D.J could be so cold and calluos (maybe it was shock that caused the assinine behaviour) well any hoo, The girl is not dead she actually survived that "Dance" (if that's what they call it) and claims she will never stop "dancing." The best part about this is they call her Judith "Cocky Tractor" Miller (what a name...smh) Here are some quotes from her interview in the "Star" "Mi wouldn't advise nobody fi try dat dance either. Dat move dangerous," she said. She continued that had it not been for the video, she would not have known what happened as the last thing she remembered seeing was Marvin running towards her. Isn't that cute... she really referred to the madness as a dance! *kiss teeth* wait let's hear more... she also said Judith "Cocky Tractor" Miller bragged th...

Artist Injured doing Video Shoot Stunt.....

Well as you may or may not of heard dancehall artist Konshen's was filming his lastest video for the song "She's Happy" when in the middle of a "planned stunt" something went hella wrong... According to what they say his brother Delus was playing a police officer and was to apprehend Konshens, but when they began the "Staged" Tussle, a little too much force was used by his brother and Konshen's got forced a tad bit too hard against a store front window (not on purpose... I hope) causing the glass to shatter (o Snap!!!) well glass went everywhere including around his face area... They said some even went into his eye!!! (damn, damn, damn) but he is o.k and after seeing him at the Celebrity Soccer Match on Monday the face & eyes look fine! (as hell!!! lol! smh) Well anyway if you don't believe me, look for yourself!!! I snapped this photo for your enjoyment...

Loving the Progress...

Dancehall has been synonymous with "Bootleg Videos" it has always been know that about 80% (and I am being nice) of the videos you see are cheap, cheezy, corny and lack imagination... Reasons being: 1: Lack Of Funds 2: Bad & Unprofessional Directors 3: Artist Spend money labels allot for videos on everything but the video 4: Lack of imagination For the most part videos have been a cut a paste deal a 3year old can do! *ugh* but with the rise of people like Rass Kassa, Jay Will and even more the all girl Director Group Scorpio 21 Video's in Dancehall have begun to take it too that next level... (Finally) I just hope they keep it up...  What artist need to realize is that your video "can" make or break the song, so take it serious don't joke it out... And on that note here are 2 of my new all time favorite videos... Taurus Riley & Konshens "Good Girl Gone Bad" I love it!!! Bounty Killa "They Don't Know"
